b-bar,

I remember you saying this before over a year or two ago, and I wanted to ask you how long it takes for L Tyrosine to take effect compared to Sinemet? Does it have the same on and off times for you. Can you give a comparison of the two for you? Is it still as effective today as when you first started taking it? How long have you been taking it? Does it have the same side effects as C/L? Thank you!

Can you elaborate on what and how much you are taking and when? If I understand what you are saying you don’t take c/l . How long have you had pd and if you don’t mind my asking, what are your major symptoms. I’m always looking for what can help my husband without going the way of c/l. Thanks so much!

Good. If you can't get better, if you can at least FEEL better, that's great. Because everybody does of something. Actually an argument for opium now that I think of it. Hey, "Remember The Wind And The Rain."
